1.
Burnt Cross - Anathema (Wings Of Fear) 02:39
lyrics
Don’t invest in companies that propagate the war machine Don’t comply to your country that murders indiscriminately The bodies hit by missiles have no prayer to liberate them Cos the devil thus defiles, desecrates the inner sanctum Dragged like animals along abattoir floors As our future is devolved in a vision of eternal war Where man sets in place an apocalyptic future In their interests, they've got cops ready to shoot ya Wings of fear unfold - a witness to its own ruin A species self implodes - a virus infecting the womb Dealing in dictatorships, the dirty tricks of hypocrites Whilst pillars of humanity are crumbling brick by brick The ash has been scattered and the embers search landfall On once hallowed ground - cursed, bloody and brutal Hands suffocate us slow, cradles the atomic dawn Poison on wind that blows, settles on an earth forlorn Peace lies in vain when aggression dominates And the power only laid in the house man creates Wings of fear unfold - a witness to its own ruin A species self implodes - a virus infecting the wombs Its a cautionary tale - of a world that we never made The ultimate betrayal - subjects subjected to hate

Burnt Cross - The Inner Revolutionist 02:15
lyrics
The rich remain divine in the kingdom of the blind And the faithful stay obedient, giving credence to bloodlines Relics in shrines Puppets led by masters who control by exploitation Creates disaster to deceive a grovelling nation Justify their crimes Debts are made that you cant pay and don't they fucking know it With one foot standing in the grave and the other covered in their shit Its time to admit Retribution can be clouded by our rage If your feeling disillusioned there's another way to make the change Learning to exist without the mind set of a slave The inner revolutionist - disengage Subservient society that begs for guidance on its knees Privilege and piety are held up by a hierarchy Of liars and thieves There's a way that we can win, evolve the anarchist within Don't be scared to make the change, the power lies within your skin Commit to begin Retribution can be clouded by our rage If your feeling disillusioned there's another way to make the change Learning to exist without the mind set of a slave The inner revolutionist

about

Streaming of Burnt Cross side of split 7" 'Anathema'

Two of the UK’s best political punk bands unite for a three track split 7” doing what punk rock should always do, highlight what is going on in this world. There is no point saying that you don’t care about politics, this stuff affects you even if your only concern is the price of your next beer and hair gel. Anthrax offer “The Beg Society”, and if you liked their brilliant last album, then you will like this, it’s a glorious, driving punker pouring scorn on Cameron’s Big Society; “we’re all in this together”? Yeah right! Burnt Cross power through their two songs, with “Anathema (Wings Of Fear)”, having more great vocals from Maureen Bourne, spitting venom at the war machine’s rampage of indiscriminate murder and carnage. “The Inner Revolutionist” points out that change starts from within, and we can all play our part. I love these three songs, and I love the co-operation that made this possible; two great bands and 14 labels combining to make sure these ideas and this music is heard.
